the close of 2009

Wow, what a great year!!! I can't complain a bit! I've meet the greatest people... each of my clients feels more like a friend than a client. I am so grateful for all of you that have trusted me with your memories! I love what I do.

THis was my last session of the year! This wonderful family squeezed in this session in the FREEZING COLD right before MOVING! Brave I tell you. But I"m so happy they did! I had a blast with them and their sweet boys! You can just feel the love in these.

I hope you guys have a safe trip and that you end up loving your final destination!!!!! Thank you for letting me spend a few hours with you. I enjoyed it so much!

Now everyone go and leave a comment! If they get to 25 they get a free 5x7! So help them out!!! And have a absolutely FABULOUS new year!!!

This is why I love babies.... each is so different, and hilarious

mute the music on the side before you press play.

two posts in one night... i'm on a roll!

I am lucky enough to call this pretty lady a friend. i was so excited when she said she wanted to do pictures. look at her cute family.... her kids are BEAUTIFUL! are they not?!!

Thanks so much Terin for letting me take your pictures! I had a blast and LoVEd every minute with you guys!

so sorry!!!

I've been meaning to blog this FOREVER. And really I feel like a terrible person because I have let it sit here this long. A few months back I did some photos for a friend of her newborn baby, who is edible by-the-way, and a few weeks after a little package showed up at my door. And what was in side of that little package was fabulous!

Kenzie had made me a camera strap for my camera and SEVERAL super cute pairs of earrings that I ALWAYS get compliments on!! SO THANK YOU KENZIE!!! I have been putting that camera strap to good use!!! And really, it's the cutest thing I've seen!!!

I'm sure she'd love to make anyone else out there one, or two, or three if you'd really like... i'm a girl who loves options... maybe you are too! Check out her blog for fun crafty tips, ideas, inspiration, and maybe have her make ya something for your someones this christmas!





And I think charlie need ones of these for her dollies... well, soon to be dollies... What would it take for me to get my hands on one of these little babies!!!??? Made by Kenzie.


oh me oh my.... I can just imagine a darling little girl running around in this. I actually already have two children's size aprons and LOVE when I see kiddos in them. Also made by Kenzie.


And if your neck is begging you to be warm i would recommend one of these. My wonderful SIL makes them and let me just say I LOVE the plum ruffle... or anything with a ruffle for that matter. Check it out.

GIrls ROCK! and moms do too!!!

I have been so busy and have been meaning to blog more from this super FUN, ROCKIN session!!! So what better time than NOW!

I have grown to LOVE this mother and daughter! They light up my day when i get to photograph them... just like they light up the pictures!!! And they always come with the best clothes!

Clearly we had a lot of fun. We were just a bunch of girls rockin' out on the town! Thanks W. and C for making me laugh!! And next time we should really go get some chicken friend steak! ;)

baby love.

it's not secret that i'm a sucker for babies.... this baby was no exception to my problem! just look at her... perfect in every way!

clients canvas order!!!

There's nothing better than a great canvas... or 5 great canvases! This client loves canvases so much they asked me to help them come up with a wall display for their pictures. So what do you think? I think I LOVE it!!!! It's perfect. They're all big and have an impact of their own when you walk into their house, but together they're even better!!! Thanks so much for taking a pictures of the final product for me Friske family!!!
